– maintains Guyana’s position of joint project

Even as Guyana is open to hearing proposals from Suriname regarding the construction of a bridge across the Corentyne River, President Dr Irfaan Ali has made it clear that his Government is only interested in a joint project.

The Guyanese leader’s statement comes on the heels of reports that Suriname’s Minister of Public Works and Spatial Planning, Stephen Tsang, said that the Government intends to fully finance and construct the Corentyne River bridge on its own.
